It is 120 miles north of Taiwan and over 240 miles off the coast of Okinawa. Over twice the distance!

How is it that we see million strong rallies/protest against PRC/KMT interest, but hardly anything in regards to this. I wonder.

Nothing... They can't do anything. China and Japan sparing over the islands is beneficial to Taiwan's cause anyways.

Strongest claim doesn't really mean anything if you don't have power to back up your claim.

You can talk, but they'll listen to the guy with the bigger gun instead.

I will also cheer for taiwan in this dispute. As long as these islands are under chinese rule and not the j@ps.
